BANGOR – Authorities are still investigating an incident that happened late Sunday night when one man was allegedly assaulted by two men wielding baseball bats and a second man was struck by a car as the two men fled the scene.

So far only one man has been charged in the incident, although the police still are interviewing witnesses and reviewing the case. It is being forwarded to the Penobscot County District Attorney’s Office for review of possible additional charges, said Bangor police Officer Shawn Green.

Marcus Shorey, 19, has been charged with aggravated assault, operating a motor vehicle without a license, theft by unauthorized use and leaving the scene of a property damage accident.

He remains at Penobscot County Jail where bail has been set at $5,000 single surety or $500 cash.

The charges stem from Shorey allegedly striking Alan McCann, 23, of Bangor with the car he was driving while leaving the Econo Lodge, and not from the fight with the baseball bats.

Authorities will have to determine whether to file charges in connection with the fight between Shorey, accomplice Roger Tenney, 21, of Bangor and Andy Soucy, 22, of Bangor. Soucy suffered bruising from repeated blows from a baseball bat. Soucy showed Officer Steve Jordan the bruises – which the officer noted were the size of a baseball bat – the results of being struck 12 times. Soucy said he counted the blows as he curled up in a ball and protected his head while pleading for his assailants to stop.

Among the issues the DA likely will consider is who initiated the fight and whether Shorey and Tenney used the bats in self-defense.

Witnesses told police that Soucy, who is much larger than the other two men, initiated the fight, Green said. Shorey and Tenney claimed that Soucy assaulted them first and kept charging them, backing away only after they lifted their bats.

Tenney, who authorities said is out on probation, admitted to hitting Soucy with a baseball bat but believes he may have blacked out during the incident.

Police were called to the Odlin Road motel shortly after 11 p.m. and found McCann lying on the pavement, a small pool of blood by his head and his elbow bleeding.

Shorey said McCann drove up and blocked him, preventing him from leaving. Shorey, who doesn’t have a license, then drove around to the other side of the motel where McCann allegedly came at him on foot. Shorey then struck a parked car.

Shorey told police McCann had a knife, although no witnesses reported seeing a knife. Shorey said he stomped on the accelerator and braked quickly to scare McCann enough to get him to get out of the way.

Shorey claimed that as he left the parking lot, traveling 5 to 15 mph, McCann jumped on the car, broke a window and tried to stab at Tenney, but was carried for a short distance before falling off. Green said that McCann’s elbow struck the windshield, cracking it, suggesting that Shorey was driving faster than he said.

Green spoke to McCann early Monday morning in Trauma Room No. 1 at Eastern Maine Medical Center, where he couldn’t speak very comfortably. McCann said he saw two men assaulting another man with bats in the road and went to intercede. He said he tried to get out of the way of the fleeing car but couldn’t in time. He said doctors told him he had a fracture in one of his legs.
